Work, Energy And Power

Question
CBSEENPH11017110

The masses of 1 g and 4 g are moving with equal kinetic energies.Calculate the ratio of the magnitudes of their linear momenta. 

10J of work is required to take the body from ground to a height 2m. How much energy is required to take the same body from height 2m to 4m?

Solution

Given, 
Mass, m1 = 1 g 
Mass, m2 = 4 g
Let v1 and v2 be the velocity of masses mand  mrespectively. 
Kinetic energy is equal. 
Therefore, 

This is the required ratio of linear momentum.
